HE presentation of this book is made with the sincere wish that it 
may be found not only of interest to those who glance but casually 
through its pages, but also of great assistance to such as seek 
knowledge regarding the best sanitary appliances or who desire an 
understanding of such matters and are undecided because of un- 
familiarity either with trade terms or the appearance of the different 
articles when installed with proper surroundings. 

It is hoped that much interest will be engendered through the results of our 
efforts to make an artistic picture of each article shown, thus departing radically from 
what has heretofore been done in any catalogue work. 

In our " descriptions " we have endeavored to describe in detail and in plain 
terms each article quoted upon, while in the " specifications," which are for profes- 
sional use, we have been as tersely practical as possible. 

The several examples shown of the great number of appliances which we manu- 
facture have been selected with the especial object of giving to the intending pur- 
chaser a real choice between the several grades of fixtures, from the costly to the 
inexpensive, without attempting to bewilder with countless examples of more or less 
doubtful merit and often meaningless differences. Nothing has been put in this 
catalogue to fill in, and every article illustrated can be delivered as specified and 
described, as all illustrations are taken from actual photographs, and precisely as 
shown herein are on exhibition at our show rooms. 

The business of this company was established in 1857, and coincidental was the 
commencement of the manufacturing of plumbers' supplies as a separate and distinct 
business from that of pbiinbing. The Henry Huber Company {incorporated in 1892), 
being successors in a direct and unbroken line of the pioneer firm, has therefore been 
engaged in the manufacture and sale of Plnmbers Supplies or Sanitary Specialities 
longer than any other firm or corporation in existence. All who are satisfied with 
their choice of fixtures from this catalogue or from our show rooms, 244 Fifth Avenue, 
and who desire to insure the installation of the goods as selected, are requested to copy 
verbatim the specification which accompanies the illustration of the article and to insist 
upon receiving the exact pieces so specified, as the safety of the house owner rests upon 
the unequivocal guarantee which accompanies all goods of our manufacture.

FIN DE SIECLE BATH AND TOILET 




DESCRIPTION 

EREWITH we take pleasure in presenting oiw Jiu dc sieclc bath room 
and toilet, which by eminent critics has been pronounced to be the 
acme of luxury and sanitary perfection. Each appliance represents 
the careful blending of the best ideas of modern sanitation with the 
truly artistic, and is as nearly perfect as the science and skill of the 
present day can make it. 

All of the fixtures shown are glazed in and out and require no further decoration ; 
their snowy-white surfaces and exquisite brilliancy of glaze are as lasting as the pieces 
themselves. 

Our white metal, a composition consisting mainly of nickel, and rivaling the well- 
known "German silver," is used in the manufacture of the metal work shown in this 
bath room. The surface will not wear off, as that and the body are of the same sub- 
stance. Its lasting qualities are far superior to silver plate or nickel plate, and with a 
little care it will always retain its brightness and color. 

The tile shown on walls and ceiling is of the glazed variety, measuring 6 inches by 
6 inches, and that of the floor is an unglazed, vitrified tile of the "star and cross" 
design, which, to be fully appreciated, must be seen in use. 

All corners have entirely been done away with by the employment of a special 
form of tile, called "cove tile," each one of which is moulded in the form of a curve, its 
two ends coming flush with the other tiles, the entire surface of the room being readily 
cleaned, as there are no dust-collecting crevices in the angle corners. 

As little woodwork as possible has been used in this room, the door having been 
prepared with several coats of enamel paint, the door joints themselves as well as the 
mirror frame being of tile, and the water closet seat, lid and cistern having been cellu- 
varnized, a secret process of great utility and merit. By means of this treatment the 
woodwork takes on a glaze equal in lustre to the porcelain itself, and is readily 
washed off with warm water without injury. 

This room having been designed and carried out with especial attention to sanitary 
fitness, as above described, it is impossible to damage or even to injure either it or its 
contents by voluntary or involuntary flooding. While it cannot be shown in the illus- 
tration, a medicine closet is set back of the mirror, the latter forming the door. In this 
closet the surface is entirely of tile, and the shelves are plate glass, and are removable 
for purposes of cleaning and deodorizing. 

Attention is especially directed to the towel bar of glass, the sanitary sponge, soap 
and paper holders, as well as to the soiled towel basket^ without which appliances a bath 
room can hardly be considered complete. 




HARMONIZED DECORATIVE EFFECTS 



DESCRIPTION 

iN THE modern house of many rooms, with the numerous styles of 
interior decoration, the problem of harmonizing the bath room in- 
teriors with the general color scheme and period has often proved a 
perplexing one. Frequently the owner's ideas, by way of variety, run 
in the direction of elaborate designs and ornate detail entailing the use 
of much color, to meet which we beg to present an illustration of a 
most beautiful interior. The connecting tile, between ceiling and walls, is of the cove 
pattern, embossed and highly decorated. A frieze of brilliant-lustre tile lends a rich, 
sparkling detail to the general color scheme, and a border of mosaic tile, about three feet 
from the floor, breaks the monotony of the walls. The floor is one of marble mosaic, 
with a rich border, harmonizing with the general design of decoration employed, while 
the diagonal setting of ceiling and wall tile between the lateral bands of mosaic, heightens 
the effect of the whole. 

In order to have the sanitary appliances in keeping with the general tone above 
described, we have, as far as their practical uses permitted, continued the design of the 
period in them. 

The lavatory of Rococo design is made of a rare piece of rose onyx mounted with 
heavily gold-plated fittings of entirely new patterns. All of the metal work throughout is 
of the same heavy gold plate. Much time and attention has been given by us to the 
design and construction of the mirror and frame, combining the highly beautiful with 
the thoroughly practical, as is evidenced by the detail of its ornamentation. The electric 
lights, supported in the form of sconces on either side of the mirror, add much 
brilliancy to the effect. 

The bath and sitz are both of the most substantial and beautiful material yet pro- 
duced, our Adainantine-porcelain. 

The closet of vitreous china, with woodwork of rich mahogany, is our "Imperial" 
combination. The only decoration used on the ware consists of three gold lines on each 
piece, including the basin interior. 

The accessories add much harmonious detail to the general effect of the room by 
giving a finished appearance to its interior. They are all of the same delicate outline 
that characterizes the other fixtures here shown, being constructed, at the same time, on 
the most durable and sanitary lines. 

The soap dishes, tooth brush vase and tumbler are of Belleek china, and the towel 
bar is of glass with knobs of the same material richly cut. The towel shelf and rod 
form a combination of exceeding utility and grace, and the sponge and toilet paper holders 
are of the same sanitary detail and artistic effect.

MODERATE COST MODERN BATH ROOM 



DESCRIPTION 

|N THE accompanying illustration is shown a bath room of compara- 
tively simple design, yet the individual fixtures of which are high class 
and sanitary. Oftentimes the Adamantine-porcelain-lined (iron) baths 
are preferred to the more luxurious and lasting Adamantine-porcelain, 
and indeed at times it becomes necessary to use the former, because 
of their lighter weight. Especially is this the case in country homes, 
where the construction does not permit of the especially heavy weight of the Adaman- 
tine-porcelain baths. 

It has been claimed at times, and perhaps with justice, that the Adamantine-porcelain 
baths, owing to their thickness, require more hot water than do the Adamantine-porcelain- 
lined, and this is an important consideration, particularly in country homes. 

It may be noticed that the tile in this room is carried up as a wainscoting, above 
which the plaster is treated with several coats of enamel paint. 

The tiling of the floor is of a vitrified hexagonal pattern unglazed. The closet is 
of the siphon-jet variety, a sanitary and up-to-date fixture, while the lavatory is of Colo- 
nial design, with generously large bowl and fully exposed piping. 

Over the bath is shown an overhead douche and side needle spray, with protective 
curtain so arranged that the water will not splash upon the floor. The bath room as 
shown is particularly sanitary and attractive. 

Blue and white predominate in the decoration of the room, from which the photo- 
graph, used in the accompanying half-tone, was taken. 

A delicate blue border on a creamy white tile outlines the top of the wainscot, and 
the protective bath curtain is of the same soft shade of color. The material used in this 
curtain is not of rubber, which is ordinarily supplied, but of a sateen, which is odorless, 
soft to the touch, cjuickly dried, and when desired may be laundered. In addition to 
these advantages it combines the further ones of not causing the metal, with which it 
may come in contact, to tarnish, and of being obtainable in any color or shade. The 
curtain is easily and quickly removed on account of the patent rings used to attach it to 
the circular rod shown in the illustration. 

The mirror has been especially constructed to overcome a serious difficulty formerly 
encountered in bath rooms wainscoted in tile, consisting of the impossibility of properly 
placing it above the lavatory on account of the projecting ledge connecting the tile with 
the plaster wall. The space between the back of the mirror and the plaster wall above 
the wainscot has been filled in with a band of the same material as the mirror frame, 
thereby making an absolutely tight and flush joint. 




PLATE 4-D 



YACHT ,BATH ROOM WITH GEGENSTROM 



DESCRIPTION 




^HE importance of the good, sanitary condition of the modern ship lias 
created a demand for plumbing fixtures particularly adapted for this 
purpose, of a superiority ecjual with the appliances for home use. 
The one thing that has made this new era in ship plumbing 
possible has been the invention of a heater that would supply water 
at any temperature uncontaminated by oil, grease or odor. The inven- 
tion referred to is the Gegenstrom system of heaters and rain baths, 
by means of which water is heated to any desired temperature by the aid of steam 
without the direct introduction of the latter into the water. This appliance is made 
in several styles to adapt itself best for any particular use, and a glance at the illustra- 
tion presented herewith will disclose the difference between the Gegenstrom shower 
and hand spray and the heater employed in connection with the lavatory. 

The bath here shown is our Adamantine-porcelain-lined (iron), light in weight, durable 
in quality and in appearance unsurpassed. The bath room from which this illustration 
has been made is a mere corner in our show rooms of such limited space and irregular 
outline that it serves admirably the purpose of illustrating what can be done on ship- 
board, where space is of necessity at a premium. 

The bath measures over all 4 feet in length and 24 inches in width, all that is 
required for its proper setting, as the rim, narrow as it is, overlaps the especially-designed 
supply pipes. 

The lavatory is made of Adamantine-porcelain, strong and durable and constructed 
with especial reference to marine usage. A lip projects around the bowl on the inside 
and prevents the water from splashing on the floor, while an especially large overflow 
in the earthenware takes care of the surplus water. With the Gegenstrom heater 
attached, as shown, this lavatory entirely does away with the old-fashioned and unsanitary 
cabinet, which has been so objectionable a feature in yacht plumbing, as well as with the 
unsightly basin and ewer, which were so awkward to handle while at sea. 

The closet shown is the No. 2 Alpha, with our new flushing valve, a simple device 
for operating a closet under direct pressure. 

The carafe holder is also a novel feature of^ this bath room, as it is constructed 
upon two distinct axes at right angles to each other, thereby causing the carafe to swing- 
in harmony with every movement of the ship without disturbing its contents.

nation of artistic and sanitary accessories so long 



Adamantine-porcelain ware, of which our porcelain baths, lavatories, etc., are made, is truly the triumph 
of the potter's art, combining, as it does, great durability with exceeding strength. This ware will stand 
much rough usage, and, indeed, is practically indestructible. The vitrified surface being non-absorbent 
makes Adamantine-porcelain ware the ideal material from a sanitary point of view, and the elegance of design 
and artistic correctness of detail make each piece pre-eminent as an example of a perfect combination of 
beauty and utility, where heretofore the one was ever sacrificed to the other. In the manufacture of this 
heavy ware some few pieces are taken from the kiln with slight cracks from the fire or other blemishes, 
which, while they do not detract from the perfect usefulness of the article, yet force the formation of a certain 
graded classification known as Class A, Class B and Class C, the latter of which in some cases are 
quoted at a decided discount from the more perfect examples priced under grade or Class A.

DESCRIPTION The Henry 
Huber Com- 
pany's Adamantine-porcelain Ro- 
man-shaped Bath, glazed outside 
and inside, is the most sanitary 
bath that has ever been presented 
to the public. Of plain though 
graceful outline and, above all, hav- 
ing the most unusual distinction of 
being glazed not only inside and 
upon the rim but outside as well, it 
becomes with the especial fixture 
that is here shown the best example 
of modern sanitary ideas as applied 
to the bath. The glazed surface is 
non-absorbent and unstainable, and, 
every part being thoroughly accessi- 
ble, one may have always and for 
the first time a truly sweet and clean 
bath. In this bath is obviated the 
distressing condition of damage to 
the usually applied embossed deco- 
ration, which is often caused by the application of heated water to the outside of the bath 
for cleansing purposes. In fact, in a properly tiled bath room, with all the fixtures glazed as 
above described, no damage could accrue if the room were actually and intentionally flooded. 

The fixture here shown is the finest made. The valve handles are white porcelain 
and are of a generous size, with porcelain " hot " and " cold " name-plates and porcelain 
knob handle to the outlet fixture called the standing waste, doing away with the necessity 
for the old-fashioned chain and stopper. 

There is an attachment to this fixture which is called the hand spray and which can 
be used at any time without other adjustment than the simple turning of the metal nozzle 
towards the bath. The towel bar is of glass and therefore especially cleanly. The sponge 
holder and soap holder are both made with especial reference to sanitary detail and are 
particularly designed to supply the modern bath room with the desired combination of 
the artistically sanitary accessories long needed.

or base which allows the piece to 

be placed directly upon the floor, rendering it possible when cement is used to make a 
tight joint between the tiled or marble floor and the bath base. The fixture shown in 
the illustration is our swan's-neck pattern, and aside from the graceful and unique 
design it has the especially sanitary recommendation of absolutely minimizing the 
amount of metal used in the bath itself, as no part of this fixture comes in contact with 
the porcelain excepting the necessary connection at the outlet. It is very easy to get in 
and out of this bath, because it is much lower than a bath on feet and at the same time 
holds more water. It is particularly commended for the use of stout persons and invalids.

highest grade of ware, and when 
used can be depended upon for its 
sanitary and lasting qualities. The 
metal work is of simple design so 
as to permit of easy cleaning, while 
the construction is so simple that 
the chances of its requiring repair 
are reduced to a minimum. Any 
other fixture that may be preferred 
can be used with this bath. The 
soap dish and faucets are placed on 
the inside so as to be easy of access. 
Where it is required to minimize 
the necessity for cleaning and 
where bright metal is easily in- 
fluenced by climatic conditions, 
the supply pipes to the bath as 
shown, as well as the standing 
waste, can be furnished in rough 

metal which may be finished with several coats of enamel paint. This finish 
requires but an occasional wiping in order that it may always look well and 
be clean.

Adamantine-porcelain ware, of which our porcelain baths, lavatories, etc., are made, is truly the triumph 
of the potter's art, combining, as it does, great durability with exceeding strength. This ware will stand 
much rough usage, and, indeed, is practically indestructible. The vitrified surface being non-absorbent 
makes Adamantine-porcelain ware the ideal material from a sanitary point of view, as the elegance of design 
and artistic correctness of detail make each piece pre-eminent as an example of a perfect combination of 
beauty and utility, where heretofore the one was ever sacrificed to the other. In the manufacture of this 
heavy ware some few pieces are taken from the kiln with slight cracks from the fire or other blemishes, 
which, while they do not detract from the perfect usefulness of the article, yet force the formation of a certain 
graded classification known as Class A, Class B and Class C, and the latter of which in some cases are 
quoted at a decided discount from the more perfect examples priced under grade or Class A.

ADAMANTINE-PORCELAIN ROLL-RIM BATH 

SPECIFICATION 

HE Henry Huber Company's Adamantine-porcelain Roll-rim 
French-shaped Bath (Plate 132-D), with glazed porcelain feet, 
decorated outside in ivory or white enamel finish, brass con- 
nected waste and overflow with chain, snap, rubber stopper 
and escutcheon, 3-inch brass compression double bath cocks 
with ^rj^-inch supplies and escutcheons. 




DESCRIPTION The Adaman- 
tine-porcelain 
Bath, as here shown, is especially 
arranged to be used where space is 
limited and where it is desired to 
have the benefit of such space, 
more particularly in the bath itself, 
than to permit the fixture to take 
up the five to seven inches usually 
allowed. The fixture in this in- 
stance is arranged so as to take up 
only that room at end of bath which 
is overhung by the wide roll rim. 
When it is required to minimize 
the necessity for cleaning and 
where bright metal is easily in- 
fluenced by climatic conditions, the 
supply pipes to the bath, as shown, 
as well as the connected waste and 
overflow, can be furnished in rough 
metal, which may be finished with 
several coats of enamel paint. This 
finish requires but an occasional 
wiping in order that it may always 
look well and be clean.

The bath illus- 

trated herewith 
is especially recommended because 
of the " under roll " feature in the 
rim. The rim is here carried 
further than in most other baths 
and continues around and under 
the top so as to present a more 
finished appearance to the eye, and, 
as well, a firmer and more comforta- 
ble grip to the hand. 

The fixture shown with this bath 
is of modern construction, high 
class and sanitary, supplying the 
water through a disk of metal so 
that it runs down the side of the 
bath without noise and does not 
permit the drawing of water into a 

pail or other receptacle, thus positively avoiding the possibility of accidental marring of 
the piece. The water inlet or bell, here shown, is what is termed a top supply, owing to 
its location near the rim, but some prefer this inlet at the bottom, the advantage being 
that the sound of the water entering is entirely muffled the moment it has reached the 
level of the inlet. This does not imply that with the top inlet the sound is objectionable, 
as, in fact, it is scarcely perceptible. When ordering, it should be stated which is 
preferred, as the tub must be cut to suit the fixture. 

Attention is especially directed to the towel bar and the sanitary soap and sponge 
holders, as such appliances are necessary in use and when- chosen carefully very much 
improve the appearance of the room without adding greatly to the expense. 



Adamantine-porcelain-lined Baths are very much lighter in weight than the adamantine-porcelain and 
are also much less expensive. The goods of this description are all fully guaranteed by us and are very 
popular for all classes of work, where the differences of price and of weight are important factors necessary 
to be considered. 

The surface of the adamantine-porcelain-lined pieces is thoroughly vitreous and non-absorbent in the 
interior and upon the rim, and is therefore perfectly sanitary and easily cleaned. The exterior being metal 
requires painting, and in the highest finish the surface is nearly equal both in durability and appearance to 
the porcelain lining of the interior.

ADAMANTINE-PORCELAIN-LINED BATH 




SPECIFICATION 

HE Henry Huber Company's Adamantine-porcelain-lined 
Roll-rim French-shaped Bath (Plate 201-D), decorated outside 
white or ivory satin finish, brass combination bell supply 
fixture with compression valves, ^4 -inch supplies and sliding' 
waste and escutcheon. 



DESCRIPTION The bath shown 
in this illustra- 
tion is one of a number of designs 
which we offer to suit the individual 
taste of the purchaser. The fix- 
ture, it will be noticed, is so 
arranged that the valve and waste 
or overflow handles rest upon the 
rim of the tub, where they are most 
accessible to the bather. By this 
arrangement that portion of the 
fixture below the rim is protected 
from splashing and the tub can 
therefore be quickly cleaned after 
use. It is an especially high-class 
article throughout and highly rec- 
ommended to any who require a 
fine bath and prefer the porce- 
lain-lined to the solid porcelain 
ware. 

Attention is especially directed 
to the towel bar and the sanitary 
soap and sponge holders, as such 
appliances are necessary in use and 
when chosen carefully very much 
improve the appearance of the 
room without adding greatly to 
the expense.

DESCRIPTION The bath here 
illustrated is 
one of a number of designs which 
we offer to suit the taste of the 
individual purchaser. The com- 
fort and safety of the bather have 
been particularly considered in the 
construction of this bath, which is 
especially desirable for the use of 
stout persons and those who are 
fearful of slipping. Its bottom is 
nearly flat, thereby increasing its 
capacity for holding water, and 
allowing the bather the greatest 
possible freedom of movement. 
With these improvements for the 
sake of comfort, we have not sacri- 
ficed the general appearance, and 
the lines of this bath are still artistic 
and attractive. The fixture shown 
is of high class and is of the best 
material and construction. 

Attention is especially directed to 
the towel bar of glass and the sani- 
tary soap and sponge holders, as 
such appliances are necessary in use 
and_ when chosen carefully very 
much improve the appearance of 
the room without adding greatly 
to the expense.

DESCRIPTION The bath here 
illustrated is 
one of a number of designs which 
we of¥er to suit the individual taste 
of the purchaser. Varying prices 
are accounted for by the kind of 
exterior finish presented in the 
illustration and the character of 
fixtures desired. 

Our Adamantine-porcelain-lined 
ware is a beautiful white in color 
and is particularly commendable 
for its durability and smoothness 
of surface and will stand very hard 
usage. The iron castings are made 
from special moulds and are per- 
fectly true. 

The feet of the bath are what is 
termed the claw and ball pattern, 
and are especially desirable for use 
on countersunk marble floor slabs, 
inasmuch as the point of contact 
of the iron with the marble is re- 
duced to the minimum, thereby 
avoiding to a 2:reat extent the stain- 
ing of the marble. 

Especial attention is directed to the towel bar and the sanitary soap and sponge 
holders shown, as such appliances are necessities, and, if carefully chosen, very much im- 
prove the appearance of the room without adding greatly to the expense. 

Adamantine-porcelain-lined Baths are very much lighter in weight than the adamantine-porcelain and 
are also much less expensive. The goods of this description which we illustrate are all fully guaranteed by 
us and are very popular for all classes of work where the difference of price and of weight are important

ADAMANTINE-PORCELAIN-LINED BATH 




SPECIFICATION 

HE Henry Huber Company's Adamantine -porcelain -lined 
Roll-rim French-shaped Bath (Plate 214-D), decorated outside 
white or ivory satin finish, No. 4^^ improved brass double bath 
faucets and '/^ - inch supplies, brass connected waste and 
overflow with escutcheon, chain and snap and rubber stopper. 



DESCRIPTION The bath shown 
in this illustra- 
tion is one of a number of designs 
which we offer to suit the individual 
taste of the purchaser. The fix- 
ture attached is designed for use 
where space is limited, as that which 
is occupied by this fixture outside 
of the bath is only such as is over- 
hung by the roll rim. 

When this bath is desired for 
use in places where bright metal is 
easily influenced by climatic con- 
ditions, that portion of the brass 
work outside of the bath can be 
furnished in rough metal, which can 
be finished with several coats of 
white enamel paint, when all that 
is necessary to keep it clean is an 
occasional rubbing with a damp 
cloth or chamois. 

Attention is especially directed 
to the towel bar and the sanitary 
soap and sponge holders, as such 
appliances are necessities, and, if 
carefully chosen, very much improve 
the appearance of the room with- 
out adding greatly to the expense.

ADAMANTINE-PORCELAIN-LINED BATH 




SPECIFICATION 

HE Henry Huber Company's Adamantine-porcelain-lined Roll- 
rim French-shaped Bath (Plate 231-D), painted one coat out- 
side, No. 39 brass compression double bath faucets, with 34 - inch 
supplies and escutcheons, No. i brass connected waste and 
overflow with chain and snap, rubber stopper and escutcheon. 



DESCRIPTION The bath illus- 
trated here is 
one of a number of designs which 
we offer to suit the individual taste 
of the purchaser. The extreme 
narrowness of the rim will be easily 
noted. The demand for space in 
which to set the bath is here mini- 
mized to the very last degree, and 
the fixture arranged for this bath 
is, while sanitary and most useful, 
extremely simple and unostenta- 
tious. It is what is known as the 
connected waste and overflow with 
chain and stopper, and the supply 
pipes are overlapped by the rim, 
thus allowing the bath to be placed 
close against the wall. 

Attention is directed espe- 
cially to the towel bar and sanitary 
soap and sponge holders, as such 
appliances are necessities, and, if 
carefully chosen, very much improve 
greatly to the expense.

convenient form of bathing; as all 
that is necessary is simply to step 
under the shower and into the radius 
of the needle-spray and thus with- 
out exertion receive the full benefits 
of this strictly hygienic and most 
truly healthful mode of bathing. 

The tingle, which is the physical 
response of the body to the needle- 
spray's contact, is sufficient evidence 
of the impetus which is given to the 

circulation by this delicate but insistent irritation of the cuticle; the exudation through 
the pores, which follows their opening (because of increased circulation), is quickly carried 
away by the downpour from the overhead shower, and the general effects of the needle- 
shower bathing, after a judicious tempering of the water, by means of the easily manipu- 
lated valves, is both restful and exhilarating in the extreme. 

For these reasons the "needle-shower" bath is especially recommended by the 
medical fraternity everywhere as a natural, pleasant and easily applied treatment, par- 
taking of the best features of both massaging and prescriptive electricity. 

The receptacle shown in this illustration is the justly popular receptor, made of our 
well-known Adamantine-porcelain. It may be let into the floor and tiled up to or placed 
upon the floor and cemented to it. The arrangements made for the outlet connections 
are such as to guarantee the fixture against leakage, and the ceiling and room beneath 
from all possibility of damage often resulting therefrom. The curtain can be furnished 
of rubber, or of our odorless material, which is easily dried and obtainable in any color 
desired. The apparatus may also be had without receptor for use in marble stalls. For 
a proper conception of "needle-shower" in full operation, see small illustration shown on 
page 43- 

Where the bathing facilities are so limited as to compel several persons to use the 
same bath, this form of bathing is particularly recommended, inasmuch as running 
water is used and the danger of infectious diseases is avoided. The side spray and 
overhead shower are made to work independently to accommodate those not desiring to 
wet their heads.

necessity in modern living, but also 
as the least inconvenient and most 
natural application of the bath. In 
the accompanying illustration is 
shown, as in the preceding one, 
a modern combination which ena- 
bles one to simply step under the 
shower and into the radius of the 
needle-spray and thus, without ex- 
ertion, receive the full benefits of this strictly hygienic and most truly healthful mode of

The small illustration shows the needle- 
shower apparatus in full operation and is 
made from an unretouched photograph. 
Particular attention is called to the results 
obtained in the needle-sprays from the 
manner in which the perforations are made 
in the piping, the double rows of perfora-

the best results obtainable from any fixture

here shown is a modification of the 
mantle needle bath, and has been 
especially devised for use where a 
less expensive fixture is desired, 
or where a lack of space does not 
permit of the placing of the more 
bulky mantle bath. The modifica- 
tion consists in contracting the spray area of the mantle bath into the two perpendicular, 
perforated pipes shown. 

As will be seen, the entire fixture takes up very little space and can, indeed, be set 
directly behind a bath tub, in such a manner, that the two vertical spray pipes overhang 
the rim and drain into the bath. The overhead shower is provided with a special valve 
and chain, enabling the user to operate both spray and shower singly or together, in the 
former case obviating the necessity for wetting the hair, if such is not desired. 

When set for use, the curtain is so arranged as to encircle the spray pipes and 
valves, thus enabling the bather to manipulate the latter and keeping the room dry. 

The curtain can be furnished of our odorless material, instead of the rubber cloth, 
the advantage being that the same has not the cold, clammy feeling complained of in 
rubber and may be obtained in any color desirable. It furthermore avoids the unneces- 
sary corrosion of the metal, which follows frequent wetting.

The space required for the proper setting of this sitz 
bath will not exceed 2 feet 1 1 inches x 2 feet 3 inches, 6 
inches having been allowed for fixture shown. 



DESCRIPTION The hip bath, 
sometimes re- 
ferred to as a sitz or seat bath, has 
grown within the past few years, 
from a luxury to what, in the minds 
of many, is now an absolute neces- 
sity to the well-arranged and thor- 
oughly up-to-date bath room. It 
can be used as a foot bath as well, 
and in both capacities is most use- 
ful and greatly appreciated. 

The back-spray attachment is 
designed to provide a more or less strong wave-like spray of water, of whatever tempera- 
ture required. When the person using this apparatus is sitting in the hip bath, and 
leaning slightly forward, the spray plays upon and across the back, and affords immedi- 
ate relief in many cases where indisposition comes from the liver. The spray is often 
prescribed as a part of an especial treatment in important cases. 

This hip bath is made with base to floor, doing away with the feet sometimes used. 
It may be cemented to the floor, and is made to conform in general outline to our 
Adamantine-porcelain floor base baths. 

The fixture is provided with an especial valve, technically termed a three-way valve, 
which enables the bather, by a slight pressure upon the push button or the raising of 
the same, to change the flow of water from the bell supply to the spray attachment or 
the reverse, thus assuring an even temperature of water without additional manipulation 
of the hot and cold water valves. 



Adamantine-porcelain ware, of which our porcelain baths, lavatories, etc., are made, is truly the triumph 
of the potter's art, combining, as it does, great durability with exceeding strength. This ware will stand much 
rough usage, and, indeed, is practically indestructible. The vitrified surface being non-absorbent makes 
Adamantine-porcelain ware the ideal material from a sanitary point of view, and the elegance of design and 
artistic correctness of detail make each piece pre-eminent as an example of a perfect combination of beauty 
and utility, where heretofore the one was ever sacrificed to the other. In the manufacture of this heavy 
ware some few pieces are taken from the kiln with slight cracks from the fire or other blemishes, which, while 
they do not detract from the perfect usefulness of the article, yet force the formation of a certain graded 
classification known as Class A, Class B and Class C, the latter of which are quoted at a decided discount 
from the more perfect examples priced under grade or Class A.

BATH ROOM SCALE AND MEASURING ROD 



SPECIFICATION 

HE Henry Huber Company's Automatic Bath Room Scale 
(Plate 451-D), with nickel-plated brass trimmings and 
enameled platform with reversible cork mat, and nickel-plated 
brass adjustable Measuring Rod and Level Bar and dial 
indicator with patent regulating screw. 




Price as described ...... $65 00 

If wliite enamel is wanted instead of nickel-plate, 

deduct . . . . . . . . 10 00 

If measuring rod and bar are not wanted, deduct . 10 00 



DESCRIPTION In this scale we 
present a fix- 
ture as ornate as it is useful. It is 
absolutely to be depended upon as 
to its accuracy, and, being auto- 
matic in its working, registers the 

weight and avoids the necessity for handling weights, which are apt to be lost, and 
which, if carelessly handled, are liable to fall and to crush and bruise the feet. 

Many leading physicians, realizing the important part that the human weight plays 
in illness and in health, strongly advise all persons daily to consult their scales, thereby 
making this an article of necessity rather than of luxury. No better opportunity is 
afforded for this than after the morning bath, which enables one to be assured of the 
actual weight. A set screw is provided for the possible necessity for adjustment. 

The mat shown is of cork felt, which is at once soft and warm to the feet and when 
wet dries quickly without damage or odor. It is fastened to the platform by means of 
four screws which are easily removed when it is desired to reverse the mat. 

The measuring attachment is an unique feature of this appliance, as it enables one to 
ascertain the correct height. Where there are children in the household the 
importance of recording the actual height and weight from time to time cannot be 
overestimated. The measuring rod is telescopic in action and when closed is out of the 
way. A child can operate the same.

FIXTURES FOR THE BATH TUB 



DESCRIPTION 




''N THE accompan 
for baths. Plate 
the water enters 
through a metal 
disc or bell, and 
then flows noise- 
lessly down the side of the bath. 
The bell may be placed near the 
top or the bottom of the bath, as 
desired. 

Plate 477 represents the same 
fixture as 476, with the exception 
that the water enters the bath 
through a spout, thereby affording 
the opportunity of drawing water 
into a receptacle. 

Plate 47S is probably the most 
ornate bath fixture manufactured, 
and requires no further connecting 
with the bath than at the waste 
outlet. 

Plate 479 is the same as 476, 
with the addition of a hand-spray 
attachment. This provides an in- 
dependent supply of water through 
the hand spray, and can be used 
for drawinor fresh water when the 
tub is already filled, by the simple 
turning of the goose-neck spout 
toward the front. 

Plate 480 illustrates a combi- 
nation hot and cold water supply 
fixture of the latest design. The 
soap dish is removable for pur- 
poses of cleaning. 

Plate 481 is one of the forms 
of waste used when the supply fix- 
ture is desired within the tub, and 
is completed by the addition of a 
bath cock similar to Plate 480.

FIXTURES FOR THE BATH TUB 



DESCRTPTION 

N THE accompanying page we illustrate a number of supply fixtures 
for baths. Plate 482 is what is called a bell supply fixture, because 
the water enters 




through a metal 
disc or bell and 
then flows noise- 
lessly down the side of the bath. 
The bell may be placed near the 
top or the bottom of the bath as 
desired. The valve handles are 
what is called the six-arm pattern, 
with china name-plates. 

Plate 483 shows the swan's- 
neck spout supply fixture of simple 
design, which requires no further 
connecting with the bath than at 
the waste outlet. 

Plate 484 is the same as Plate 
4S2, excepting the valve handles, 
each having an extra ball at the 
top in place of name-plates. 

Plates 485 and 488 are what are 
termed connected waste and over- 
flow fixtures, the difference between 
them being that the latter is fur- 
nished with a metal cap threaded 
at the top, which is removable for 
purposes of cleaning. To complete 
these fixtures it is necessary to add 
a bath cock of a design similar to 
Plate 486 or 487. 

Plate 486 is a double com- 
pression bath cock, while Plate 487 
is one of the Fuller pattern. In 
the former the valves are opened 
by turning the wheel handle, while 
in the latter the raising of the arms 
opens the valves.

ACCESSORIES FOR THE BATH ROOM 



DESCRIPTION 

N THE accompanying page we illustrate some of our bath room 
accessories. These formerly were considered as luxuries, but modern 
progress has placed them in the line of necessities without which no 
bath room can be complete. Plate 576 represents a substantial and 
strong soap holder of ample size, which is at once adaptable for use 
in the bath room, laundry, pantry or the kitchen. Plates 577, 578, 579 
and 5S0 show, respectively, our tooth brush vase and holder, soap dish 
and holder, tumbler and holder, and 
the combination of the three. Es- 
pecial attention is here directed to 
the design, which has been care- 
fully studied by experts with the 
view to creating fixtures which 
were at once strong, artistic and 
absolutely sanitary. The metal- 
work is cast brass and the pottery 
is of the finest French porcelain 
body, called Belleek china. It will 
be seen that the drip which may 
come from the individual pieces 
cannot follow the bracket back and 
thus foul the wall, because of the 
design of the bracket having a pro- 
tective flange at its lowest point, 
and this feature in itself, being ex- 
clusively ours, makes these appli- 
ances eminently superior to any- 
thing of this kind yet produced. 
Plate 581 represents our latest 
design in shavins: mirrors, which 
is free from the wall, and being 
provided with a ball joint and 
especial clamp enables it to be set 
at any angle desired. The ends of 
the bar, upon which the mirror may 
be slid from side to side to change 
the light, are made to project and 
can be used as towel hangers. 
Plate 582 represents a bath brush 

holder. Plate 583 shows our sanitary toilet paper holder (patent applied for); the paper 
is placed in position by simply unscrewing the metal top and dropping the roll within 
the metal jacket, then again screwing the top on. The edge of the jacket is so formed 
as to cut the paper when desired. The sponge holder, Plate 584, partakes of the same

each 



EREWITH are presented some of our bath room accessories of latest 
design. Plates 585 to 589 inclusive, show the various styles of 
glass towel rods, from the simple to the most ornate design. Plate 
585 is also made entirely of metal when this is preferred. 

The carafe holder, shown under Plate 590, has been more espe- 
cially devised for use on board of yachts, steamships and in private 
railway cars. Within the outer circle will be seen two smaller ones, 
fastened to the next by two 




pivots in such a manner that any 
amount of pitching and tilting will 
leave the carafe perfectly hori- 
zontal. 

The glass shelf, Plate 591, is 
fast superseding the old-style appli- 
ance in wood or marble, as it is 
more readily cleaned, looks well at 
all times and is not affected by oils, 
medicines, etc. It is fastened to 
the substantially designed brackets 
by means of two bolts which pre- 
vent the annoying rattling and 
throwing down of articles placed 
thereon which is so disagreeable 
a feature of the glass shelves 
loosely laid upon pins or other 
brackets.

The sanitary combination 
towel bar and shelf (Plate 593), fills 
a long-felt want in supplying a 
means of separating the used from 
the fresh towels. 

The soiled towel basket, shown 
under Plate 594, is as ornate as it 
is useful. Soiled towels have here 
a proper receptacle, and suf- 
ficient space is left between the 
bottom of the basket and the floor 
to permit a proper circulation of 
air, preventing the musty odor aris- 
ing from damp towels enclosed in 
wicker or other receptacles.

Glass Towel Bars (Plates 585-!), sS6-D, 587-0, 588-D, or

SANITARY LAVATORY FIXTURES 



DESCRIPTION 

N THE accompanying page we illustrate some of our lavatory fixtures, 
which, as they are more or less interchangeable, enable the intending 
purchaser to vary to suit individual taste, the lavatory combinations 
shown elsewhere. 

Plate 676 shows our Collegiate waste and single spout supply 
fixture, necessitating the use of a patent overflow basin to 
carry off the surplus water. The hot and cold water valves are of 
the Fuller variety, and for the sake

of safety are stamped " hot " and 
"cold." The Collegiate waste is 
constructed upon the simplest 
mechanical principles, and there is 
nothing in its construction liable 
to stoppage or to get out of order. 
By pushing back the waste knob, 
the fulcrum movement sends the 
horizontal rod forward, bringing its 
end in contact with the beveled 
base of the stopper, which is there- 
by forced up ; by reversing the 
operation the stopper is lowered. 

Plate 678 shows an independ- 
ent Collegiate waste to which may 
be added any style of cock or 
faucet." 

Plate 677 shows an independ- 
ent waste fixture which is used 
with a basin having no overflow, 
the same being provided in the 
perpendicular pipe called the stand- 
ing waste. Any style of cocks or 
faucets may be used with this

fixture. 

Plate 679 shows one of the most popular fixtures made, which is used exclusively 
in connection with our patented New Departure basins. The latter are so 
modeled as to drain toward the rear where the waste is located, thus minimizing 
the amount of metal used and also the fouling space, a great sanitary consideration. 
The waste, which operates by the slide movement, necessitating a simple turn to either 
raise or lower it, may be instantly removed, and as the barrel, within which the standing 
waste operates, is made in one piece with the earthenware and presents internally a 
perfectly smooth surface, the insertion of a cloth readily cleanses it.

SANITARY LAVATORY FIXTURES 




DESCRIPTION 

N THE accompanying page we illustrate some of our lavatory fixtures, 
which, as they are more or less interchangeable, enable the intending 
purchaser to vary, to suit individual taste, the lavatory combinations 
shown elsewhere. Plates 680 and 682 represent two styles of basin 
faucets of the Fuller pattern, which are operated by raising or lower- 
ing the arm handles; Plate 682 being what is termed a low-down 
faucet, because the spout rests upon the slab of the lavatory. Plates 



681, 684 and 685 are compression 
basin faucets in which the valves 
are opened and closed by the turn- 
ing of the wheel handles. Plate 68 1 
is a semiAow-down faucet standing 
sufficiently clear of the basin slab 
to permit the drawing of water into 
tumbler or other receptacle, and 
enabling the entire fixture readily 
to be cleaned. The handle is pro- 
vided with a china name-plate desig- 
natina: the hot and cold water fau- 
cets. Plates 684 and 685 differ only 
in the style of handles, the former 
having what is termed a four-arm, 
while the latter has a T handle. 
Plate 683 represents our improved 
self-closing basin faucet, which, ow- 
ing to its simplicity of construc- 
tion, is not liable to get out of 
order and will not pinch the fingers 
of the user. Plates 686 and 687 
illustrate our butler's pantry fau- 
cets, and are so constructed as to 
permit the drawing of water into 
bottles, carafes, etc. Plate 686 is 
called a plain bibb, and 687 a hose 
bibb, because the latter is provided 
with a male thread upon which a 
hose nozzle or filter maybe screwed. 
Plate 688 is a combination basin 
supply and shampoo fixture which 
can be used with any basin having 
no overflow, as the latter is pro- 
vided in the standing waste. This 
shampoo attachment can be ad- 
justed to any other fixture desired.

SANITARY LAVATORY SUPPORTS 



DESCRIPTION 

N THE accompanying page we illustrate some of our lavatory supports. 

All these have been especially designed with reference to their artistic 

merit as well as their sanitary worth, and the important features of 

strength and durability have not been overlooked. We take a just 

pride in claiming for these pieces novelty of design, to attain which 

no expense or labor has been spared. 

Plate 776 shows a bracket for use where it is not deemed advisable to have the 

supports reach the floor. 

Specification : The Henry Huber Company's Cast-brass 
Angle Lavatory Brackets (Plate 776-D), size 16^ x 18 inches. 

Price as described, polished or nickel-plated, per 

^9 5° 




Plates 477 and 478 are two 
styles of simple lavatory legs, the 
former beins: constructed for use 
where a lavatory apron is desired. 

These two styles have been 
especially designed for use where 
it is desired to reduce to the mini- 
mum the cost of installation with- 
out sacrificing the durability and 
sanitary features of a good lavatory 
support, and, further, where it is 
advisable to lessen the labor of 
cleaning. 

When climatic conditions are 
such as to affect bright metal the 
necessity for cleaning is minimized 
by having these supports made in 
the rough brass which may then 
be finished in enamel paint. 

Plates 779 and 780 are of 
Colonial design, and are also made 
for use with or without an apron, 
offset or straight, as shown. 

Plate 781 is a pleasing design 
of lavatory leg with apron pocket. 

Plates 782 and 783 are two 
styles of lavatory legs of pure 
Rococo design, the latter being 
the most beautiful and graceful 
lavatory leg yet produced.

111 this illustra- 

tion will be seen 
a most perfect example of the Ro- 
coco design of the period of Louis 
XV., carried out with great fidelity 
and care as to detail, and with the 
most conspicuous success in the 
tout ensemble. The graceful curves 
in the strong solid brass legs create 

a design that has never before been attempted in a metal leg. The remarkable success 
of the new design in connection with the exquisite and rare rose onyx slab and back, 
and the valve handles, which are both new and perfectly in consonance with the period 
of the general design, all unite to form a beautiful fixture, wherein is found a perfect 
blending of the highest artistic merit with the most advanced sanitary ideas. The 
mirror frame shown is a truly ornate and faithful reproduction of the art of the above 
period, most exquisite in detail and most charming in its entirety. 

It is not often that those who are striving for thoroughly artistic surroundings can 
procure the same with the assurance of absolute sanitary perfection for the bath room 
furnishings. In the lavatory and accompanying fittings, and the mirror, here illustrated, 
can be had the full and perfect fruition of this idea: Artistic to the casual observer, it is 
to the critic in such matters positively up to date sanitarily and has our highest guaran- 
tee as to the same. 

Not every one can afford to purchase a work of art for the bath or toilet, the value 
of which is enhanced to a great degree by the addition of the most precious of metals, but 
when such is possible the advantages are correspondingly great and the results sure to 
be satisfactory. 

Gold will not tarnish as will silver or nickel and the consequent labor of cleaning is 
greatly lessened.

of the most advanced ideas as to 
sanitary requirements. 

This fixture has been modeled 
after much thought on the part of 
our expert with the view to over- 
coming the chief objection to the 
oval lavatory standing free from 
the wall, consisting in the falling 

of toilet articles over the back of the slab to the floor, and yet retaining the beauty 
and the practical features of an elliptical slab. We take pleasure, also, in calling 
attention to the dishing of the marble to afford drainage of the water that may fall 
upon the slab, and to the raised edges, preventing articles for the toilet from sliding 
into the bowl. This design has been suggested by the sea shell, and for beauty of 
outline is unsurpassed. 

The combination fixture supporting soap dish, tooth brush vase and tumbler, 
and at the same time providing ample facilities for towels, is a particularly unique 
and beautiful piece of work. While sufficiently clear from the back, readily to 
permit of cleaning, it is at the same time far enough to the rear not to disturb 
one while using this lavatory. Any dripping from the glass or soap dish must 
fall upon the slab and drain into the bowl instead of falling upon the floor as in the 
less modern lavatories that stand entirely free from the wall. The legs are purely 
Colonial in design and harmonize perfectly with the rest of this fixture. They are 
substantially made and can be readily kept clean.

The lavatory 

shown in this 
illustration is a plain, substantial, 
and neat appearing fixture wherein 
the prevailing idea is to be sanitary, 
and embellishment is reduced to 
the minimum. While inexpensive, 
the marble and brass work are of 
the best class and the usefulness of 
the whole is as perfect as any. 

This fixture is recommended to 
those desiring a lavatory requiring 
as little metal work as possible, in 
order to facilitate its cleaning as 
well as that of the floor. Legs 
being done away with, it is espe- 
cially well adapted for use where 
room is very limited. 

Attention is especially directed to the mirror, towel bar, soap, glass and cup holders 
and soiled towel basket, which appliances are necessities and, if chosen with care, much 
improve the appearance of the lavatory without adding greatly to the expense.

DESCRIPTION The lavatory 
here illustrated 
is a notable example of the most 
harmoniously blended ideas of the 
sanitarian, the utilitarian and the 
artist. The slab and basin are 
made in one piece of solid Adaman- 
tine-porcelain, perfectly white in 
color, and both are covered inside 
and out with a clear transparent 
glaze which is non-absorbent, un- 

crazeable and nearly indestructible. The especial utility of the slab is found in the fact 
that it is double countersunk and triple-drained, while the basin is exceptionally large and 
deep. The top of the slab is outlined by a raised and rounded rim in the form of a sea 
shell, while the slab outside this outline is continued with a flat shelf effect to the wall, 
where it is overlapped by the back of Adamantine-porcelain, the whole showing a light 
and graceful looking artistically modeled piece of ornamental furniture which is as well a 
thoroughly strong, serviceable and sanitary appliance. 

The legs of old Colonial detail show the high lights most effectively and do not 
require particular labor to keep them clean. 

The new and patented device for bringing towels, soap, drinking glass, etc., within 
convenient reach is also artistically proportioned and, indeed, especial attention is directed 
to the mirror and the sanitary and ornamental glass, soap and cup holders, which, if used, 
add much to the appearance of the lavatory without materially increasing the cost. 



Adamantine-porcelain ware, of which our porcelain baths, lavatories, etc., are made, is truly the triumph 
of the potter's art, combining, as it does, great durability with exceeding strength. This ware will stand much 
rough usage and, indeed, is practically indestructible. The vitrified surface being non-absorbent makes 
Adamantine-porcelain ware the ideal material from a sanitary point of view, and the elegance of design and 
artistic correctness of detail make each piece pre-emirient as an example of a perfect combination of beauty 
and utility, where heretofore the one was ever sacrificed to the other. In the manufacture of this heavy ware 
some few pieces are taken from the kiln with slight cracks from the fire or other blemishes, which, while they 
do not detract from the perfect usefulness of the article, yet force the formation of a certain graded classi- 
fication known as Class A, Class B and Class C, the latter of which are quoted at a decided discount from the 
more perfect examples priced under grade or Class A.

illustration is made in the form of 
an ellipse, with roll rim and Ada- 
mantine-porcelain pedestal base, to 
comply with certain sanitary ideas, 
for instance, where it is desired to 
have a lavatory standing free from 
the wall, so that all parts of it are 
readily accessible for cleaning. 
Where possible, porcelain is sub- 
stituted for metal, the pedestal base 
taking the place of metal legs so 
that the work necessary for clean- 
ing may be minimized. The top 

and basin are made in one piece, thereby removing the possibility of the unsanitary separa- 
tion which sometimes takes place in the joint between the ordinary marble slab and basin. 

The glass shelf is arranged for toilet articles, which it is one of the objects of a 
lavatory of this description to keep off the slab. 

Owing to its unique design this lavatory is frequently used in country houses 
where it is impracticable to have individual bath rooms. Its beauty and utility allows 
of its being placed in any sleeping room with perfect propriety. 

Attention is especially directed to the mirror, the soap dish and the sanitary glass 
and cup holders, which appliances are necessities, and if care be used in their selection, 
their presence adds much to the appearance of the whole without adding greatly to the 
expense.

brass basin supplies \\ith angle compression valves with 
six-arm handles, i ^^4 - inch brass offset basin trap to wall and escutcheon. 




DESCRIPTION The lavatory 
here illustrated, 
which, with the back and legs, is 
made of Adamantine-porcelain, is 
a design of much artistic merit 
carried out with strict adhesion to 
the approved sanitary ideas, and 
will be found to be a most delight- 
fully cleanly and inviting fixture. 
The rim or border of the slab is 
slightly raised so as to prevent the 
water splashed upon the slab from 
running or dripping off. The 
bowl and slab are made in one 
piece, and the annoying and un- 
sanitary loosening of the joint, 
which sometimes occurs between 
the slab of marble and the porcelain 
basin, cannot, of course, in this 
fixture take place. 

Especial attention is directed to the mirror, the soiled towel basket, the towel bar 
and the sanitary soap glass and cup holders, which are necessities, and if care be used 
in their selection, add much to the appearance of the lavatory without greatly 
increasing the expense.

ADAMANTINE-PORCELAIN LAVATORY 



SPECIFICATION 

[HE Henry Huber Company's Adamantine-porcelain Lava- 
tory (Plate 971-D), size 25 x 20 inches, with Adamantine- 
porcelain back 13 inches high, and legs, brass antique 
waste, No. 19 compression low-down basin faucets with 
four-arm handles and china name-plates. No. 6 brass sup- 
plies with escutcheons, i>^-inch brass offset basin trap extended to wall 
with escutcheon. 




DESCRIPTION This illustra- 
tion presents a 
lavatory which, though unpreten- 
tious, is certainly deserving of 
especial attention, inasmuch as it is 
made of Adamantine-porcelain 
entire, the slab and basin in one 
piece, the back a perfect protection 
for the wall, and the legs economiz- 
ing the labor of cleaning. The 
lavatory itself is a slight modifi- 
cation of the severe lines of the 
one shown in Plate 972-D, and is 
an improvement upon it. The 
metal work is of first quality, and 
sanitarily correct in detail. Especial 
attention is directed to the mirror, 
the sanitary glass, soap and cup 
holders and the towel bar, which 
appliances are necessities in the 
modern bath room, and if used greatly 
without adding materially to the cost.

improved self-closing basin faucets, with i^-inch brass sup-

expansion bolts, and brass Beaumont trap to floor and back vent to wall with 

escutcheons. 




DESCRIPTION We here pre- 
sent our Ada- 
mantine-porcelain Corner Lavatory 
with back, all in one piece. A 
more symmetrical piece cannot 
easily be found. Where space must 
be economized this corner lavatory 
solves the problem. The bowl is 
of a generous size and the large 
overflow strainer can be easily re- 
moved for purposes of cleaning. 
Our patent Beaumont trap is shown 
with this piece, and for perfection 
of outline and simplicity of con- 
struction is unsurpassed. It can be 
readily taken apart and cleaned 

without disturbing the other fixtures. The New York plumbing regulations demand a 
trap with visible seal, and to comply with these regulations we supply such a trap for 
work within the city limits. 

The basin faucets automatically close the moment pressure upon the lever is 
removed. 

Especial attention is called to the towel bar, glass and soap holders, which, if care is 
used in selecting, add much to the appearance of the lavatory without material expense.

It is so constructed that it is im-

The Walbrac adjustable seat is 
secured to the wall by patented brackets, which, having an extensible feature, do not 
require any fixed distance from wall to seat, and, indeed, can each be set independently 
of the other, so that any inequality in the wall surface or unevenness in the placing of 
the closet may be overcome without extra trouble or expense. 

The especial sanitary features of this seat are that when raised the earthenware is 
entirely free to be cleaned, and when lowered the wood does not come in contact with 
the bowl.

into ordinary T. Y. iron pipe or screwed into that of the Durham System of Soil and 
Waste Pipe, the former recjuiring eg inches between the wall and the marble partition, 
and the latter but 8 inches. The entire quantity of water of the flush is delivered 
directly and evenly into every part of the bowl, as in the other pneumatic closets, and the 
immediate and complete emptying of the bowl and instantaneous renewal of the large 
body of water forming the water seal is also the same. 

The Appendo is a seat that is hinged directly to the bowl in such a manner that 
the wood does not touch the earthenware, and, when raised, leaves a clear space beneath, 
thus rendering it possible to have the earthenware kept clean, a most important sanitary 
feature. The hinge of the Appendo seat and lid is provided with a tension nut, which, 
when set, prevents the annoying banging against the bowl from accidental dropping or 
careless slamming.

The Clysmic is 
a closet of the 
pneumatic type (of which we are 
the sole manufacturers); its opera- 
tion, being based upon natural 
laws, is perfectly simple, and, having 
a double water seal, is the safest 
closet made. 

The Clysmic, like the Flume 
and the Cascade, has the second 
seal, in the shape of a trap, below 
the floor, and is so constructed 
that it is impossible to either break 
or lower the water seal by throw- 
ing water or slops into the bowl, 
and should the floor connection 
from any cause become loosened or 
leak the closet will not operate, 
thus giving timely warning, as no 
other closet will, of the necessity 
for attention. 

The Boyle connection, pat- 
ented and controlled by us, is used 
on this closet, and in its mechanical 
construction and working is gener- 
ally conceded to be the ideal closet 
connection. It is non-rigid, barrel- 
shaped, and from its construction and application, saves the earthenware from breakage 
after installing. The non-rigid feature, when expansion or contraction takes place in a 
building, guards the ware from damage, and is particularly serviceable where settling of 
floors or vibration takes place, especially in railroad depots, ferry houses, elevated 
stations, factories, etc.

The closet here 
shown is con- 
structed on the pneumatic principle 
and bears the same relation to our 
Roll-top Geyser as does the Clys- 
mic closet to the Cascade.having the 
oval shape of the bowl in place of 
the round, and a flat rim instead of 
the roll. It is to be borne in mind 
that like the Roll-top Geyser, this 
closet has the two water seals in 
the earthenware, and therefore 
above the floor, whereas the Cas- 
cade and Clysmic both have the 
second water seal in the shape 
of a trap below the floor. Never- 
theless the operation is precisely 
the same as that of all our closets 
that are constructed upon the 
pneumatic principle. 

The single discharge flushing 
cistern, shown with this combina- 
tion, contains but one flush, operated in the usual way. It is nearly noiseless, sure, and 
a high-class pneumatic cistern. 

The Appendo is a seat that is hinged directly to the bowl in such a manner that 
the wood does not touch the earthenware, and when raised leaves a clear space beneath, 
thus rendering it possible to have the earthenware kept clean, a most iinpoi-faut 
sanitary feature. 

The Boyle connection, patented and controlled by us, is used on this closet, and in 
its mechanical construction and working is generally conceded to be the ideal closet

saves the earthenware from breakage after installing, and is particularly serviceable

houses, elevated stations, factories, etc.

pneumatic type (of which we are 
the sole manufacturers); its opera- 
tion, being based upon natural 
laws, is perfectly simple, and having 
a double water seal, is the safest 
closet made. 

The Flume, like the Cascade 
and the Clysmic, has the second 
seal in the shape of a trap below 
the floor, and is so constructed that 
it is impossible to either break or 
lower the water seal by throwing 
water or slops into the bowl, and 
should the floor connection from 
any cause become loosened or leak, 

the closet will not operate, thus giving timely warning, as no other closet will, of the 
necessity for attention. Its operation is as nearly noiseless as is possible, and because 
of the fact that the outlet of the bowl is smaller in circumference than is the trap itself, 
it is not liable to clogging or stoppage. 

Particular attention is called to the unique shape of the bowl, which, being square, 
enables one to use this closet to especial advantage as a slop sink without danger of 
sewer gas caused by the breaking of the water seal. 

The Reservoir cistern, patented and controlled by us, consists of a storage reservoir 
and a flushing chamber with the highest class apparatus to work the same. The flush- 
ing chamber holds a measured three gallons, all that is necessary thoroughly to flush the 
closet, as, unlike in the siphon-jet type of closet, all the water passes through the flushing 
rim, thus causing the greatest possible economy in the use of water. 

Owing to this feature of economy and the capacity of the reservoir tank, this type 
of closet is particularly adapted for use in places where the water supply is uncertain, as 
the tank when filled, should the water supply be entirely cut off, is still capable of from 
three to five flushes. Owing to the construction the annoyance of the delay in the refilling 
of the cistern after the regular flush, when the water pressure is low, is entirely obviated.

This seat is built with refer- 
ence to the sanitary requirements 
regarding the necessity of keeping 
the woodwork, and as much of the 
metal work as possible, from contact 

with the earthenware ; when raised both seat and lid are entirely free of the earthenware, 
thus leaving ample space for cleaning, a most important sanitary feature. In further 
compliance with sanitary requirements the heads of the bolts, which fasten the bowl to 
the floor, are covered with white porcelain caps, which are set in plaster of paris. 

The Silent Sure Supply (SSS) Flushing Cistern is of very simple construction 
and flushes noiselessly with a single pull of the chain or rod, delivering a measured 
quantity of water, and the flush can be regulated for from three to eight gallons as 
required.

DESCRIPTION The especial 
feature of our 
siphon-jet closets, which we desire 
to call attention to, is the fact that 
we avoid the noise of the down rush 
of water into the jet where the pipe 
is placed in a direct line with the 
flush pipe, by placing the pipe on 
the outside of the bowl, which, 
taken in connection with the in- 
terior construction of our closets 
and cisterns (which we control by 
patents), enables us to present a 
nearly noiseless closet, the efficient 
working of which we guarantee. 

Its action is simple and direct, 
and the results obtained are abso- 
lutely satisfactory. The water seal 

is 4 inches, and the water surface in the bowl is nearly 12 inches, thus safeguarding 
the room from the possibility of sewer gas, and providing at all times an especially clean 
and sanitary fixture. 

The seat is built with reference to the sanitary requirements regarding the necessity 
of keeping the woodwork, and as much of the metalwork as possible, from contact with 
the earthenware, and will be found, though inexpensive, an exceedingly high-class and 
modern seat. 

The Silent Sure Supply (SSS) Flushing Cistern is of very simple construction 
and flushes noiselessly with a single pull of the chain or rod, delivering a measured 
quantity of water, and the outflow can be regulated for from three to eight gallons, as 
required. 

The flush pipe connection in the closet is perpendicular. Entering the bowl 
from the top of the closet, it avoids any break in the direct fall of the water from the 
tank, thus giving full force for flushing.

The especial 
feature of our 
siphon-jet closets, which we desire 
to call attention to, is the fact that 
we avoid the noise of the down 
rush of water into the jet where the 
pipe is placed in a direct line with 
the flush pipe, by placing the pipe on 
the outside of the bowl, which, taken 
in connection with the interior con- 
struction of our closets and cisterns 
(which we control by patents), en- 
ables us to present a practicall}^ 
noiseless closet, the efificient work- 
ing of which we guarantee. 

Its action is simple, direct and 
nearly noiseless, and the results 

obtained are absolutely satisfactory. The water seal is 4 inches and the water surface 
in the bowl is nearly 12 inches, thus safeguarding the room from the possibility of sewer 
gas, and providing at all times an especially clean and sanitary fixture. 

The especial feature of the Alpha No. 2-B, as here illustrated, is the local or bowl 
vent, which, in many instances, is demanded by architects and engineers, and is here 
provided under separate number so as to avoid confusion. 

The flush pipe connection in the closet is perpendicular; entering the bowl from 
the top of the closet, it avoids any break in the direct fall of the water from the tank, 
thus giving full force for flushing. 

The Appendo is a seat that is hinged directly to the bowl in such a manner that the 
wood does not touch the earthenware, and, when raised, leaves a clear space beneath, thus 
rendering it possible to have the earthenware kept clean, a most important sanitary feature. 
The hinge of the Appendo seat and lid is provided with a tension nut, which, when set, pre- 
vents the annoying banging against the bowl from accidental dropping or careless slamming.

our efforts to 

market a siphon-jet closet filling all 
the specific requirements of the 
sanitary engineers and affording to 
those who are unable or unwilling 
to purchase the more elaborate and 
expensive siphon-jet closets, an op- 
portunity of procuring a thoroughly 
reliable and sanitary fixture. While 

the salient features of our better closets of this type have not been overlooked in the 
manufacture of the Admiral, yet we have been able to attain this result by careful 
economies of manufacture such as the reduction in the size of bowl, seat, etc. 

The earthenware is of vitreous body, of which all our closets and basins are made; 
it is non-absorbent, will not craze and will not discolor. The design of the bowl has 
been particularly looked after, and the result has proven eminently satisfactory, as has 
been shown by the numerous testimonials received for this combination by the many 
who have chosen it for their work. 

The cistern is the same as is shown with our other siphon-jet closets and is called 
the SSS. It is of very simple construction, and flushes noiselessly with a single pull 
of the chain or rod, delivering a measured quantity of water, and the outflow can be 
regulated for from three to eight gallons, as required. 

The seat is built with reference to the sanitary requirements regarding" the necessity 
of keeping the woodwork, and as much of the metalwork as possible, from contact 
with the bowl, and will be found, though inexpensive, exceedingly high class and 
modern. 

The flush pipe connection in this closet is perpendicular; entering the bowl from 
the top, it avoids any break in the direct fall of the water from the tank, thus giving 
full force for flushing. 

Despite its low cost this closet combination is most popular for all classes of work ; 
from the highest grade of private residence plumbing to the more or less public 
character of work in club houses, hotels, etc.

presents to the householder the unsatisfactory and unnatural condition of a fi.xture which 
it is an absolute sanitary necessity to keep clean and which caiuiot be got at to clean. 
The seat, with or without cover, is hinged directly to the bowl in such a manner that 
the wood cannot touch the earthenware, and when raised leaves a clear space beneath,

placed within a few inches of the 
bowl and so arranged mechanically 

as to operate with perfect satisfaction and with very little noise. The cover upon the 
tank is something of an innovation and prevents the noise of refilling from being 
obnoxious or especially noticeable. This cover is readily removed, being screwed down, 
and should it be desirable at any time to get at the interior of the cistern it is rendered 
most easy of access. 

A slight touch upon the metal projection on the side of the cistern quickly operates 
the closet. 

The seat is built with reference to the sanitary requirements regarding the necessity 
of keeping the woodwork, and as much of the metalwork as possible, from contact with the 
earthenware, and will be found, though inexpensive, exceedingly high-class and modern.

powerful jet of water conveyed to the small hole in the bottom of the bowl by a pipe 
made in the closet and leading from the inlet down the back of the bowl, and when in 
operation greatly increases the efficiency of the closet by accelerating its operation. 

In making the connection between the metal flush pipe leading from the cistern 
and the bowl of the closet, the necessity for making a water-tight joint has in numerous 
instances eventually caused the cracking and breaking of the earthenware because of the 
non-elastic or super-rigid nature of the coupling used. In striving to overcome the 
great loss entailed by these fractures, many couplings have been offered to the public 
which, while overcoming the rigid feature mentioned, were neither lasting nor satis- 
factory in use, giving frequent cause for expensive repairs and readjustment. The 
Boyle connection, patented and controlled by us, is used on this closet, and in its 
mechanical construction and working is generally conceded to be the ideal closet 
connection : sanitary, safe and economical. It is absolutely non-rigid and, from its con- 
struction and application, saves the earthenware from breakage after installing, econo- 
mizes room and permits the closet to be placed very close to the wall. The non-rigid 
feature, when expansion or contraction takes place in a building, guards the ware from 
damage and is particularly serviceable when settling of floors or vibration takes place.

The wash-down closet, as its 
name implies, washes the contents 
of the bowl down and out through 
the trap, which is made in one 
piece with the bowl, and thence 
into the soil pipe. While the water 
area in the bowl is not quite as 
large as that in the siphon-jet type 
of closet, the water seal is ample 
for all protection. 

The Appendo is a seat that is 
hinged directly to the bowl in such a manner that the wood does not touch the 
earthenware, and, when raised, leaves a clear space beneath, thus rendering it possible 
to have the earthenware kept clean, a most important sanitary feature. The hinge 
of the Appendo seat and lid is provided with a tension nut, which, when set, prevents 
the annoying banging against the bowl from accidental dropping or careless slamming. 

The cistern provides, through simple mechanical construction, a practically noise- 
less flushing tank for water closets, which, while it is not an expensive fixture, is built 
upon approved lines, and will be found a most satisfactory part of a good water closet 
combination. It is styled the N. S. B. 

The Boyle connection, patented and controlled by us, is used on this closet, and in 
its mechanical construction and working is generally conceded to be the ideal closet 
connection. It is non-rigid, barrel-shaped, and from its construction and application 
saves the earthenware from breakage after installing. The non-rigid feature, when ex- 
pansion or contraction takes place in a building, guards the ware from damage, and is 
particularly serviceable where settling of floors or vibration takes place, especially in 
railroad depots, ferry houses, elevated stations, factories, etc.

DESCRIPTION Very popular 
for public use 
is the Oval Unique, a wash-down 
water closet of new model. It was 
most carefully designed and carried 
out, and the results show a practical 
and high-class fixture. 

The wash-down closet, as its 
name implies, washes the contents 
of the bowl down and out through 
the trap, which is made in one 
piece with the bowl, and thence 
into the soil pipe. 

There is no attachment that is 
more simple in construction or 
more durable in qualit}' than our 
Horseshoe Automatic Flushing 

System. Pressure upon the seat prepares it for action, which, the instant the pressure 
is removed, takes place. The flushing is direct and the results immediate and 
complete. For use in factories, schools and public buildings, this combination is 
highly recommended. 

The Appendo is a seat that is hinged directly to the bowl in such a manner that 
the wood does not touch the earthenware, and when raised leaves a clear space beneath, 
thus rendering it possible to have the earthenware kept clean, a most important 
sanitary fcatiire. 

The Boyle connection, patented and controlled by us, is used on this closet, 
and in its mechanical construction and working, it is generally conceded to be the ideal 
closet connection. It is non-rigid, barrel-shaped, and from its connection and 
application saves the earthenware from breakage after installing. The non-rigid feature, 
when expansion or contraction takes place in a building, guards the ware from damage, 
and is particularly serviceable where settling of floors or vibration takes place, especially 
in railroad depots, ferry houses, elevated stations, factories, etc.

The Bostonia 
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ No. 2 Wash- 
down Water Closet is especially 
made for the use of children, being 
much lower than the ordinary closet, 
and is particularly arranged for 
fire-proof construction in schools 
where it is desirable to carry the 
outlet through the wall instead of 
through the floor. The local or 
bowl vent ventilates the inside of 
the bowl, carrying foul air through 
the wall into an especial pipe to be 
constructed with outlet to the open 
air. 

The operation of the wash-down is, as its name implies, a washing down, by force of 
the fall of the water, of the contents of the bowl, which are forced down into the trap 
and so out into the soil pipe. 

The painfully unsanitary feature of the closet seat which necessitates a more or less 
certain contact between the woodwork and the earthenware is familiar to all. It presents 
the unsatisfactory and unnatural conditions of a fi.xture which it is an absolute sanitary 
necessity to keep clean, and which cannot be got at to clean. This seat is hinged directl}^ 
to the bowl in such a manner that the wood cannot touch the earthenware, and when 
raised, leaves ample space beneath, thus rendering it possible to keep the top rim of the 
closet clean and dry, a most important sanitary feature. 

There is no attachment that is more simple in construction or more durable in 
quality than our Horseshoe Automatic Flushing System. 

Pressure upon the seat prepares it for action, which takes place the instant the pressure 
is removed. The flushing is direct and the results are immediate and complete. For use 
in factories, schools and other public buildings this combination is highly recommended. 

The Boyle connection, used on this closet, owing to its non-rigid feature, saves the 
earthenware from breakage after installing, and in its mechanical construction and working- 
is generally conceded to be the ideal closet connection, sanitary, safe and economical.

DESCRIPTION Wash-out clos- 
ets, so named 
because the contents of the bowl 
are washed out into the trap, and 
thence into the soil pipe by the 
influx of water from the flush pipe, 
are s^enerallv divided into two 
classes, front outlet and back outlet 
closets. The Armada is a wash-out 
of the front-outlet type, and its 
especial advantage lies in the fact 
that the flush of water enters the 
bow4 unimpeded from the rear, and 
with full force sweeps the contents 
of the bowl promptly and positively 
ahead and out. 

This fixture is so constructed as 
to retain at all times a pool of water 
in the bowl, thereby preventing the adhesion of matter to the earthenware. 

The supply or flush connection shown in this combination is safe and good, and 
may be used without fear of other than proper wearing and lasting qualities. 

The seat is made with reference to the sanitary requirements regarding the neces- 
sity of keeping the woodwork, and as much of the metalwork as possible, from contact 
with the earthenware, and will be found, though low in price, an exceedingly high-class 
and modern seat. 

The Design F No. 1 1 -A hardwood cistern is one that may be used in connection 
with a combination where an inexpensive apparatus is called for, the buyer having per- 
fect assurance of being able to rely upon its action and durability.

cover with seat back is a plain but 

very substantial attachment, designed for use where a low-priced fixture is desired, and 

one that will not be injured by rather hard usage. 

The tank is made of plain wood, dovetailed and oiled, and is so constructed as to 
give the best satisfaction when used with a closet of this type. If desired, it may be 
placed behind the wall, above the ceiling, or encased in marble or slate. 

In making the connection between the metal flush pipe leading from the cistern 
to the bowl of the closet, the necessity of making a water-tight joint has in numerous 
instances eventually caused the cracking and breaking of the earthenware because of 
the non-elastic or super-rigid nature of the coupling used. In striving to overcome 
the great loss entailed by these fractures, many connections have been offered to the pub- 
lic, which, while overcoming the rigidity mentioned, were neither lasting nor satisfactory 
in use, giving frequent cause for expensive repairs and readjustment. The Boyle con- 
nection, patented and controlled by us, is used on this closet, and in its mechanical 
construction and working is generally conceded to be the ideal closet connection, 
sanitary, safe and economical. It is absolutely non-rigid, and from its construction and 
application, saves the earthenware from breakage after installing, economizes room and 
permits the closet to be placed very close to the wall. The non-rigid feature, when 
expansion or contraction takes place in a building, guards the ware from damage, and is 
particularly serviceable where settling of floors or vibration takes place, especially in 
railroad depots, ferry houses, elevated stations, factories, etc.

This illustration shows the closet with porcelain rim made into a seat, the sanitary 
properties of which are readily comprehended and will, we trust, be greatly appreciated. 
The closet is also made without the porcelain seat feature and provided with the regular 
device for attaching" a wooden seat. It is also made for buildings where fire-proof con- 
struction is demanded, and furnished with cast-iron or brass bend or outlet connection, 
carrying the waste to the wall instead of to the floor as in ordinary construction. 

Having in mind the purpose for which this closet is especially recommended, 
the flush connection or inlet coupling is elastic or non-rigid; this feature being 
particularly designed to save breakage from intentional jarring or building settling or 
vibration. 

The No. 1 1 Design G hardwood cistern, as shown, is neat and comparatively inex- 
pensive. The material used in its construction is first-class in every respect and the 
workmanship is of the best. Each cistern is carefully tested before leaving our works 
and guaranteed to give absolute satisfaction. The necessity and annoyance of frequent 
repairs are therefore entirely obviated.

down Closet is made of extra heavy 
ware, and is not only exceedingly 
strong in construction but most 
powerful in action. The operation 
of the wash-down is, as its name im- 
plies, a washing down, by force of 
the fall of the water, of the contents 
of the bowl, which are forced down 
into the trap and so out into the 
soil pipe. For buildings both pub- 
lic and private, and particularly in- 
sane asylums, hospitals and prisons, where the possibility of especially severe and care- 
less or malevolent usage is anticipated, the " Monument " is confidently offered as being 
both safe and reliable. The illustration shows the closet with a wooden seat, but it can 
be furnished with a porcelain seat made in one piece with the bowl. In other respects 
this combination is similar to the " Ajax." 

Attention is called to the metal cap in the front of the closet, covering a clean-out. 
This cap can be unscrewed, thus affording an opportunity of removing any obstruction 
caused by the careless dropping or intentional throwing of any article into the bowl. 
If clean-out is not wanted closet can be furnished without. 

Having in mind the purpose for which this closet is especially recommended, 
the flush connection or inlet coupling is elastic or non-rigid; this feature being 
particularly designed to save breakage from intentional jarring or building settling or 
vibration.

STANDARD URINAL, BOYLE CONNECTION 



PATENTED 




SPECIFICATION 

HE Henry Huber Company's Vitreous China Standard 
Urinal (Plate 1226-D), with polished or nickel-plated brass 
Boyle patent inlet and outlet connections with rubber 
washers and polished or nickel-plated brass screw bolts 
and protecting plates. 



DESCRIPTION The unexam- 
pled popularity 
of our Standard Urinals is explained 
by the following important sani- 
tary features : the lip, or that part 
which projects towards the front 
from the bottom of the opening, 
has a perpendicular, overhanging 
ledge which reaches its extreme 
depth at the point of the lip and 
gradually narrows towards the top 
as it is followed back ; this car- 
ries all drippings towards the front 
and naturally causes their dropping 
to the slab or slate floor, prevent- 
ins; their beins: carried back and 
under the urinal and so fouling the 
wall joint. The connections of the 
Standard Urinal, which admit the 
inflow of the flushing water at the 
top and permit the outflow at the 
base, are of our famous Boyle 
patents, the ue plus ultra of sani- 
tary connections. Their particular 
points of recommendation for use 
with urinals consist in the readiness 
and ease with which the piece may 
be connected up, and in the fact 
that should it be necessary through 
any cause to remove or replace the 
urinal, all that is required, is that 
the small nuts in the face of the 
metal discs be unscrewed, when the 
urinal may be taken off and another 
substituted without damaging or 
in any way injuring the wall.

HARDWOOD WATER CLOSET CISTERNS 




DESCRIPTION 

F EQUAL importance with the quah'ty of the earthenware and the brass 
work in a water closet combination is the woodwork. Unless the 
best of raw material for the latter is procured and the most skilled 
mechanics are employed for the manufacture of tanks, seats and lids, 
no closet combination — be it never so good otherwise — will be durable. 
Unseasoned wood will dry and split, and poor varnish will soon 
assume an ugly color, and it is most distressing to see a closet with 
stained and worn 



seat and lid 
beyond repair, and a split and 
leaky cistern with its never-ceasing 
drip. It certainly is false economy 
to allow one's self to be influenced 
and inveigled into purchasing a 
cheap closet outfit of dubious make, 
because it looks (when new) almost 
as good as a combination of some-

after a few short months, or even 
weeks, many times the amount of 
money supposedly saved in the 
original purchase has been lost

" cheap '" woodwork. All woods 
employed in the construction of 
our cisterns, seats and lids, are 
thoroughly kiln-dried, having been 
selected for the especial use to 
which they are to be put. Our wood- 
working department has always in

Our woodwork is so treated as to 
prevent its warping, and finished 
with the best varnishes obtainable, 
and each piece has our guarantee. 

The cisterns are lined with 
heavy copper, the seams are thor- 
oughly soldered, and if desired for use where the water contains alkaline substances the 
latter will be treated with several coats of asphalt paint that will prove an effective remedy. 

The interior of the cisterns are mechanically constructed so as to give the best 
results with the particular style of closet which is to be used.

ADAMANTINE-PORCELAIN SLOP SINK

brass pail support, 3^- inch iron pipe size supply pipes and escutcheons, and 
i-inch air chambers with brass acorn heads. 




DESCRIPTION The Flushing- 
rim Slop Sink 
illustrated herewith is the product 
of the most advanced thought upon 
the question of modern plumbing 
and the safety and convenience of 
the householder. The use of the 
water closet as a receptacle for the 
slops of a house is strongly con- 
demned as a most unhygienic and 
unsanitary practice, and the slop 
sink is therefore brought forward 
to provide a separate fixture for the 
reception and disposal upon scien- 
tific lines, of such liquid refuse as 
is generally described under the 
term "slops." The fixture is prop- 
erly and carefully trapped, and 
where the household is large, and 
particularly in boarding houses, ho-

tels, hospitals, and office buildings, 

the use of the flushing-rim slop sink is especially recommended. It is provided with 
a flushing tank which, operating as in a water closet combination, effectively and in- 
stantly cleanses the bowl through the flushing rim, and if desired, as shown herewith, 
is also provided with an especial nozzle and pail support to enable the housemaid to 
draw either hot or cold water, thus avoiding the necessity for the use of the bath tub 
or the lavatory faucets to supply water needed, and thereby escaping from the great 
liability of damage to the lavatory and the bath by the careless dropping or knocking of 
the housemaid's pail or other vessel, which latter economy will be greatly appreciated 
by many who have suffered material loss through such accidents.

ADAMANTINE-PORCELAIN SLOP SINK 



SPECIFICATION 




HE Henry Huber Company's Adamantine-porcelain Roll-rim 
Slop Sink (Plate 1327-D), with iron strap standard, enameled 
inside, brass grate strainer. The Henry Huber Company's 
improved compression faucets, ^4 -inch iron pipe supplies, 
escutcheons and i-inch air chambers with acorn heads. 



DESCRIPTION The slop sink 
— or housemaid's 
sink shown in this illustration is a 
modification of the one having a 
flushina; rim, and while much more 
inexpensive than the one referred 
to, is nevertheless a perfectly sani- 
tary fixture and one which should 
be put into every home where the 
question of expense must be con- 
sidered as important. There can 
be no doubt but that the use of the 
water closet as a receptacle for the 
liquid refuse of a household, gen- 
eralized under the term "slops," is 
most ill-advised, being dangerous 
to the health and uncleanly in the 
extreme. The surface of the sink, 
the protective trap underneath, 
which is porcelain enameled in- 
side, and the convenience for draw- 
ing water as needed by the house- 
maid are considerations which add 
to the importance of the slop sink 
above its mere provision as a re- 
ceptacle. The one economy per- 
formed by providing a convenient 
water supply for housemaid's use, 
thus avoiding the damage which 
often occurs through the use of the 
bath or lavatory faucets, for such 
supply is in itself not unworthy of 
especial mention, since a bath tub 
or lavatory representing a cost in 
excess of the whole outlay for the 
slop sink mentioned may be irre- 
parably damaged by the sudden 
and forcible contact of a pail or 
other vessel.

be kept so, and the positive assurance of its being clean when it looks clean, recommends 
this fixture as the one to be desired in so important a room as the butler's pantry. The 
marble work as shown is of the very best class possible and so guaranteed. The faucets 
made especially for this sink, the trap extra large and heavy, the legs strong, plain and 
easily kept bright and clean, and the standing waste, which occupies a recess in the sink, 
so arranged to remove it from the body of the sink, are all the results of most successful 
efforts to produce a modern sanitary and substantial fixture for especially high-class 
work.

THE GEGENSTROM SYSTEM OF 



RAIN BATHS AND WATER HEATERS 



AND UNIVERSAL MIXING VALVES 



THE GEGENSTROM SYSTEM OF RAIN 
BATHS AND HEATERS 



PATENTED 




HE Gea.-enstrom, herein illustrated, is a novel and ingenious form of 
hot water apparatus, the object of which is the instant heating of 
water or other fluid to any desired degree of temperature by means 
of steam, without the direct introduction of the latter into the fluid. 
The aim of the invention was mainly to design an apparatus so con- 
structed that, where it is desired to heat water by steam for shower 
baths, the great danger of scalding so common to other methods of heating should be 
avoided, and furthermore, to prevent contaminating the fluid to be heated by the direct 
introduction of steam. The Gegenstrom apparatus solves the problem in a most 
simple manner. 

The Gegenstrom (counter current) derives its name from the principle adopted 
in making steam and water flow in opposite directions in separate pipes, so that they do 
not at all mix together. 

It is composed of an outer shell or jacket, enclosing a bundle of small tubes 
packed together and leading from the steam inlet pipe through the steam valve (marked 
"hot") to a waste at the bottom of the apparatus. The outside pipe or jacket is 
connected with the water supply pipe, from whence it leads to the water valve (marked 
"cold") which, when open, allows the water to enter the overhead douche pipe. 

The operation of the apparatus consists in turning the lever marked "cold" to the 
left, thereby opening the valve, whereupon the cold water entering below rises and 
emerws from the douche. Then, turning the lever marked "hot" to the left the steam 
valve is opened, admitting the steam into the tubes ; it then passes down and through 
them, transmitting its heat to the water surrounding them, and at the same time gradu- 
ally growing cooler and condensing, and when it reaches the waste at the bottom 
it flows out in the form of cold water. The fact that the steam condenses and flows out 
as water at the bottom demonstrates the economy of the apparatus, inasmuch as all 
heat units are taken from the steam and transmitted to the water. 

In the style of apparatus designed for bathing purposes the steam valve is only so 
large as to admit sufficient steam to heat the water, when both steam and water valves 
are turned on to their fullest capacity, to a temperature not exceeding iio° Fahr., and 
as the hot and cold levers are ingeniously arranged, the cold above the hot, so as to 
prevent the turning on of steam before first turning on the water, it is an utter impossi- 
bility to scald the bather. 

If it is desired to change the temperature of the v/ater instantaneously, the same 
can be done by simply opening or closing the steam valve, without reducing in the least 
the amount of water coming from the douche. 

193 



For other special purposes, such as obtaining hot water for washing or scrubbing, 
for boiling cof¥ee, etc., the apparatus is furnished so modified in construction that any 
desired degree of temperature up to the boiling point may be produced. 

In all apparatus used heretofore for warming water by means of steam mixing or 
injecting valves, the drawback exists that their operation is very imperfect as regards the 
regulation of the temperature of the heated water. In inexperienced hands their use is 
attended with considerable danger of scalding, either by reason of the water getting too 
hot or by steam jets. The short distance from the injecting valve to the douche does 
not always permit the high-pressure steam to become perfectly condensed, and some of 
it is, in consequence, discharged upon the bather. With steam-injecting valves perfect 
noiselessness is not obtainable, and the heating of the water is usually accompanied by a 
singing sound, which in a confined bath room may frighten timid bathers. The ratio of 
the steam pressure to the water pressure is frequently variable, and it is almost impos- 
sible with injecting cocks to secure a uniform and unvarying temperature of the heated 
water without the use of special pressure-reducing or regulating valves. 

Where clean warm water is desired for bathing or other purposes the fact should 
not be overlooked that by a direct introduction of steam into the water a disagree- 
able odor is often imparted to the latter, and finally the warming of fluids such as 
must not be diluted with water (for instance, mineral waters), cannot be accomplished by 
the direct injection of steam. 

Compared with other systems for generating warm or hot water the Gegenstrom 
offers many important advantages, some of which are as follows : 

/. It enables the instant heating of any quantity of ivater to any desired temperature ; 
hence, it causes a saving oj time. 

2. It does away with warm water reservoirs or tanks ; hence, it effects a saving of 
expense and, incidentally, a saving of space. 

J. It dispenses ivith the heat stored in and radiated from hot water reservoirs ; hence, 
it causes a saving of fie I. 

4. Since the tvater does not come in contact with the steam it does not receive any bad 
odor or taste from the latter, however oily the steam may be ; thei-efore, it furnishes water 
of great putnty. 

5. Since the steam and water do not come in contact, the apparatus works with 
absolute noiselessness. 

6. Since the apparatus used for bathing purposes is so constructed and the handles 
operating the valves are so placed as to render the discharge of steam or of overheated water 
impossible, absolute safety to the bather in using the apparatiis results. 

y. The desired temperature of the water can be obtained without difficulty for any 
steam or water pressure, and the apparatics is easily regulated. 

194 



■wrai 



8. Finally, since the apparatus does away with a hot water reservoir and its connect- 
ing steam and zuater pipes, and with the storage of warm water, and since one and the 
same fixture supplies cold as well as zvarm water, the Gegenstroni has the advantage of 
insuring greatest economy in construction. 

The Gegenstrom is especially adapted for baths in institutions, in public or 
people's baths, in factories, schools, in mining works, etc., where steam is available. It 
may be used to supply shower, rain baths or hand sprays ; for filling bath tubs or for 
supplying and constantly replenishing the water of plunge baths. Bathing establish- 
ments with mineral or other medicinal waters will find the use of this apparatus of the 
greatest advantage, since none of the valuable ingredients or medicinal properties of 
the water are lost. 

The apparatus is equally well adapted to be used at natural hot springs, in which 
case cold water may take the place of the steam in order to temper the water and render 
possible its immediate use for drinking or bathing. 

It may be used on board of steamships, for shower and tub baths, for the passen- 
gers, the officers and the crew. No other apparatus is so well adapted for this purpose, 
because on steamships the water pressure available is low, the steam pressure high, and 
the steam is always oily. It may also be used on board of steamships for the instanta- 
neous production of hot water for culinary purposes, for hot drinks, for washing 
purposes, etc. 

In infirmaries, hospitals, insane asylums, prisons, reformatories, military barracks, 
hotels, and other public buildings, where steam is provided, the apparatus can be used in 
one form for supplying baths, and in a modified form for making hot water for culinary, 
washing and scrubbing purposes. 

In laundries and in many industrial establishments it may be used for making hot 
water in any quantity. 

In ordering the apparatus always state for what purpose it is desired. If the 
apparatus for baths is wanted, be particular to state the available zvater and steam 
pressure, the quantity of warm zvater desired per minute, and the desired temperature of 
the warm or hot zvater.

unqualified success that a demand 
sprang up for a simple apparatus 
that would prevent scalding and 
permit of rapid changes in the tem- 
perature of the water where steam 
was not available. We take great 
pleasure in presenting ih^l/jiiversal 
Mixing Valve (patented and manu- 
factured exclusively by ourselves), 
by means of which we gain the 

many advantages of our Gegeustro'in Rain Baths by using hot w^ater in place of steam. 
Owing to the " interlocking " valves scalding is impossible, and the temperature can be 
speedily changed to any desired degree. 

The Universal Mixing Valve, like the Gegenstrom apparatus, has passed the 
experimental stage, and the many testimonials and the great number of appliances in 
successful operation amply testify the value from an hygienic and sanitary point of view 
of this unique fixture. 

In this illustration is shown the No. i Universal Mixing Valve, which in design 
and practical working" is the acme of perfection. It can be set very close to the wall, and 
can therefore be used behind a bath tub or receptor. 

In the finest residences this style of shower is fast superseding the more ordinary 
appliances controlled by globe valves. 

As is the case with our Gegenstroms, the Universal Mixing Valve is made in several 
sizes to suit all requirements, from the finest residential work to the most extended and 
complex necessities of public bathing, as in institutions particularly. The larger sizes 
are especially made to enable the bath attendant to control the douches collectively from 
one point, which may be in a separate room from that in which the bathing takes place, 
if desired. In such cases it is customary to have the supply pipes to douche and the 
douches themselves arranged overhead and out of the bather's reach. 

The douche face or perforated cap, for purposes of cleaning, is made removable, and 
the douche being connected with the pipe by means of a ball joint may be set at any 
angle desired.

THE GEGENSTROM WATER HEATER 




SPECIFJCATION 

HE Henry Huber Company's No. 200 Geij^enstrom 
Water Heater (Plate 165 i-D), with tube bundle of 
brass or copper, cast-iron head and tripod standard 
and wroug'ht-iron jacket with special clean -out and 
plug. 



DESCRIPTION Our Gegen- 
Strom water 



Price, each heater ...... $200 00 

Controlling valves and piping extra, price upon application. 



heaters are constructed on the same 

principles as our rain baths, with the exception that the heating surface and capacity of 

the apparatus is much increased, and, there being no necessity for limiting the 

temperature to 110° Fahr., to prevent scalding, the "interlocking" valves are dispensed 

with in the larger heaters. A clean-out is also pro\'ided at the bottom of the 

apparatus. 

Owing to the increased heating surface of the large heaters, exhaust and low- 
pressure steam is preferably used, and the back pressure on the engine, when connected 
with the exhaust, is reduced to a minimum, as the steam in passing through the heater 
does so in a straight line, preventing unnecessary friction. 

Some of the especial advantages of our Gegenstrom water heaters are : 

/. IiisfanfancoJis production of hot water at any tcinperatiire and in any desired 
quantity. 

2. Perfect condensation of steam wit/i back pressitre upon the engine rcdticed to a 
niinimiDii. 

J. Perfect provision for free expansion, of the heating tnbes. 

^. Small size, allowing its being placed in corners and cramped spaces. 

5. Simplicity and irliabilitw enabling one to set the heater for a given temperature 
and to be able to depend, upon it absolutely. 

6. Comparatively small initial cost. 

y. The doing away with hot zvater storage tanks and reservoirs. 

8. Economy, as -water is heated only -while in use, and there is therefore no evap- 
oration. 

In the accompanying illustration we present a battery of three No. 200 Gegenstrom 
heaters, the steam for which is supplied from the exhaust of the engine, as shown. This 
illustration was made from a photograph taken in one of the leading industrial estab- 
lishments of the East, and illustrates better than words can describe the simplicity and 
effectiveness of our heating apparatus. In this instance the heaters are used to provide 
feed water for the boilers and actually heat the same to 212° Fahr., even in winter, 
when the water is extremely cold. Gegenstroms of this description can be used either 
alone or in batteries of as many as are desired. Further information upon application.

Above prices do not include controlling, steam and water valves, piping or fittings, but same can be 
furnished at market rates if wanted. 

Plunge bath accessories, including supply inlets, strainer outlets, brass balcony and guard rails, furnished 
to order, prices upon application. 



DESCRIPTION The home plunge bath, one of the greatest lu.xuries that modern 
wealth can attain, is illustrated on the accompanying page. The 
Gegenstrom heater, by means of which the water is heated to any desired temperature 
by the aid of steam without the direct introduction of the latter into the water, shows 
how a large or small plunge bath can now be heated expeditiously, safely and surely, 
without having to depend upon the boiler supply, always more or less uncertain. 

Any arrangement for placing the Gegenstrom heater differing from the one shown 
in the accompanying illustration can be carried out to suit the purpose for which the 
heater is to be used. When the circulating system is desired, in addition to the supply 
of warm water alone, by making a connection with the bottom of the plunge and the 
water supply to the heater, and the addition of a check valve to the supply pipe from the 
street, the cold water is drawn from the bottom of the plunge to the heater, from which 
it is again sent into the plunge at the proper temperature, thus forming a perfect 
circulation of evenly-tempered water. For this arrangement it becomes necessary to set 
the heater in such a manner that the water inlet from the heater into the plunge be a 
trifle lower than the plunge water level.
